Thank you so much! I've been looking for this everywhere!
$100 each! Yikes! Guess I better start selling some stuff!
I've been looking for a Robotron harness too. Do you think I can use a Make Trax harness instead?

That is $100 for both, not for a single.
As for a harness, you can PM Dokert on klov forums (http://forums.arcade-museum.com/member.php?u=34681, he might make you one. He makes Williams upright harnesses.
Also, I have a Robotron cocktail. Let me know if you have any questions.
Good luck with the restoration! It is a great game. I love the cocktail even though it is probably a bit more challenging to play than the upright.

Wow, I wish I knew that sooner. I did the defender project first because I thought it was cheaper. That makes a big difference now.
Oh well, thanks for letting me know. If it weren't for you, I would of ended up waisting an extra $100 on parts I didn't need.
Also, thanks for the link! I'll be sure to asked him about a harness, if I ever find a Robotron board. Darn things are so hard to find! :banghead:
You'll probably be hearing from me a lot when I get started on the Robotron. I'm gonna have a lot of work to do...

Alright, so I don't have much of an update but..
I was lucky enough to find a guy online who would sell me his Defender Control Panels. They cost me $173 shipped. Idk if that was a good deal or not, but it'll sure save me some time. They're both in great condition, the only bad thing is one of them is missing a joystick. But thanks to Paladin that wont be a problem! ;D I'll post pictures of it when i arrives.

Ah, the world of restoration. If you dig enough, you'll find plenty of people able to help. The only down side is cost.

Ok, I got jrok's multi-williams board in the mail today along with the original defender harness I ordered. It's not quite what I expected. The harness doesn't match anything in my cab. Idk what it's suppose to go to. Do I need some other kind of wire or something? I know for a fact none of the plugs coming from the JAMMA harness will fit anywhere in my cab.
Anybody know what I need to do?!?
The harness:
The parts it's suppose to connect to:
The board:
SirPeale:
You don't have an original harness there, you have a JAMMA to Williams wiring adapter, specific to The JROK board. Since you're wiring from scratch, you should have just bought a standard JAMMA harness and wired from that. Unless you have a Williams harness, what you've got is...well, a bunch of wire. Sorry man.
